On 26 June the Kgalema Motlanthe Foundation, In Transformation Initiative (ITI), Democracy Works Foundation, Gordon Institute of Business Science (GIBS) and the Hanns Seidel Foundation held the first of a series of five dialogues via Zoom.

\nThis podcast focuses on the inputs made by the two dialogue panellists, Prof Adam Habib, Vice-Chancellor of the University of the Witwatersrand and Gill Marcus, the former Governor of the South African Reserve Bank. Some of the issues highlighted by the two panellists include how the Covid-19 pandemic has fundamentally changed the nature of work and operations, how economic policy will have to be reimagined and the question of state capacity and leadership during the pandemic in South Africa.

\nThe dialogue was hosted by former President Motlanthe and Roelf Meyer, with Prof Nick Binedell facilitating the conversation.
\n
\nThis dialogue forms part of a series of discussions held between June and November 2020, which will discuss critical matters concerning all South Africans and their future.
